A participação dos pais/encarregados de educação e o papel do diretor de turma

Abstract

The relationship between school and family as well as the involvement of parents/Guardians (EE) in school life is the basis for structuring and construction of this report. From the professional experience and thus study the participation of parents/EE and the role of Class Directors (DT) in school involvement it has been a priority. Since so often mentioned in other works, the family-school relationship and parental involvement/EE in school life are an asset to the success of students. We sought to more thoroughly understand the relationship established between the school, parents and class directors, ie, understand how they can be parental involvement, such as how stakeholders (parents, class directors and school) work together, enabling a critical reflection on how and where to focus cooperation between the actors. The importance of interaction that should exist between family and school; the obstacles to the participation of parents/EE and strategies that can benefit and strengthen this link in a perspective of responsibility, are another aspect which we believe is of utmost importance to promote success at school; look to explain of why parents/EE and teachers can not yet understand each other and comprehend why the majority of educators give to parents/EE the source of discipline problems and so often point to as factors the new family model, in which adults remain little time at home, or one that has a different organization from the traditional. Another purpose of this report, include the perspective of the class of directors with regard to the involvement of parents and guardians with the school.
